Why Buy a Modular Home?
Buying a modular home is a great way to get into the market with very little down, and with the price of rents going sky high, there is also the benefit of paying yourself instead of your landlord. Whether you are downsizing and retiring to allow more time for travel, or starting your family and tired of paying rent, this may be one option to consider. If you . . .
- Like to walk out your front door onto your own lawn
- Want a newer home without the cost of a house on land
- Like the freedom with less maintenance
- Don’t like sharing the walls, ceiling and floors with your neighbour
- Want to pay less taxes paid since you only pay on the chattel, not the land (that’s part of the pad fee costs…)
- Compare water/sewer bills in the city with rural MHP — part of pad fee goes to that too!
- THIS IS THE ONLY PURCHASE THAT YOU CAN MAKE THAT THE PROPERTY TRANSFER FEE DOES NOT APPLY – so you just saved yourself 1% of the first 200,000 in upfront costs.
ParksvilleMobileHomes.com is now owned by Deborah Nicol
When Charlotte Kersting retired and asked me to look after this website, I was happy to say yes. ParksvilleMobileHomes.com has served the public since 2011 with listings of quality mobile homes in the mid-Island area. It is a pleasure to continue the tradition of a mobiles-only website for retirees, newcomers to the island, and those just starting out on the property ladder.
As you may know, mobile homes are one of the most affordable dwellings you can buy. A mobile is often the first choice for many who are looking for a small yard to call your own for children or pets. Vancouver Island has a good selection of quality parks that are home to families and seniors.
Call me today for an introduction to mobile home living.
